I swear I'm pregnant. I even have morning sickness.Moody much? One minute I'm gay and flirty, the next minute I'm downright mean.
Amanda called me "catty."
I have moments of real confusion. Fleeting moments when I sometimes don't know where I am.
This is what my pregnancy was like. I was not a person you wanted to be around.
Of course, I am NOT pregnant, so WTF?
I was taking a high dose of Effexor and it is finally out of my system. Maybe it's replacement isn't enough and depression, which causes many of my symptoms, is gradually taking over. I'll need to watch that.
Or maybe my thyroid levels need adjusting (the morning nausea is a clue).
Or maybe I'm just heading into The Change. I'll be 48 next month. Does menopause feel like pregnancy?
Whatever it is, I guess I ought to get my old self to the doctor. I hate going to the doctor.

Age is just a number ( that's what I keep telling myself, amongst all these 20 somethings at school) :)
Feel better soon!
I'm betting on menopause, which OFTEN is correlated with thyroid issues which in turn often causes depression symptoms. Yeah...I've been perimenopausal for a few years now and recently the thyroid started to slow down causing more fatigue and general depression than I usually feel. Now I take a thyroid supplement, a mood support supplement, progesterone cream and a heavy duty (but buffered) multi-vitamin. I feel much better thank you.
Seriously, from what I've read lately, it sounds like all the symptoms of menopause.
I hate going to the dr. too. Let us know what you find out.
I hope you're wrong and that you're pregnant because the alternatives don't sound all that much fun. Feel better soon.
